Abstract
Drinking Song is a kind of lyric that dates back to the Anacreontic verse. It seems that social developments have also affected the function of this type of literature and transformed it from a lyrical function to a social function, which can be shown by using a systematic tool. One of these tools is the knowledge of semiotics, which tries to identify the origin of the text through the sub-images that are spread in it and to achieve the internal coherence of the text, in spite of the existence of inaccuracies, through the exploratory reading to the post-exploratory reading. The present study has compared and analyzed the semiotic semiotics of Houshang Ebtehaj and Razi-al-din Artimani from two different periods. Exploratory and retrospective reading and focus on descriptive systems and hypograms of the two texts show that the mentioned texts, despite paying attention to the prominent themes of the literary type of the drinking song, have changed their content. Accordingly, Ebtehaj, using mythological codes, conveys deeper diversity and messages and gives another meaning to its main elements; The butler has found a new meaning in his drinking song and the social approach of this butler, according to the events of the society, has made the text more prominent. According to the analysis of the matrices of the two texts, while Artimani thinks of annihilation and God to get rid of tyranny and oppression, Ebtehaj seeks a savior who will awaken the dormant society.
